A World to Win is collaborating with others on a proposal for a new kind of organisation that will focus on democracy, power and the state in making a transition beyond capitalism. A deeper understanding of the issues involved is essential for building a movement that counters the ideologies of war, surveillance, inequality and the ruthless exploitation of nature that drives the climate crisis.

The discussion continues on the Real Democracy Movement website. Why don't you register your support and join in?
